breast feeding

I am planning on breast feeding because theres so many good things about it but when I told my family they were disgusted by it and its really putting me off the idea.

What are bad things about breast feeding? Because I really dont know why they think its disgusting

Everyone thinks differently about it. One of my very close friends that has 6 year old twins didnt breastfeed her babies because she doesnt see her breasts that way. She sees them as a sexual object and just finds feeding her babies from them is weird. But she has no problem with women who see there breasts as being for there babies before sexual objects. My daughter is 2 weeks old today and I breastfeed in front of her all the time and it doesnt phase her, she just keeps talking away like nothing is different.

There are not bad things about it. Ppl just think it's sexual or gross. But it's not at all. In going to breastfeed.

Breast feeding can be the best thing you do for your baby so many more nutrients they get sick less often it's so much better for them I don't think anything negative can come out of it except immature people thinking it's nasty.
